- jakiah, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Is this a shock?
- buderbala, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Starting off with Firefox I went up to about $15, when I was informed that for cheating reasons I had to change to iExplorer. Well, I did. From that time I had troubles to get it go again and finally went up to $21. At which time I got 4 times a window saying that they were making cheating checks. I was told to NOT refresh that window, to close it and to start but after 5 minutes again. At Firefox time I had always two windows open, one to rotate sites, one to display the stats, as they said it run real-time, which wasn't true I had to refresh the get the figures. At present I am stuck at $21 and I am no longer able to get my stats page. If I try to get there I am timed out, however, login goes normal, credential check is normal, rotating sites (of course) is normal. I had my suspicions from time to time because the stats would not advance as expected for hours. One last thing. I have for sure reported them 5 times but I never got any answers, which is a bad sign. Also, I have the bad feeling, that they cut me off just before the end of last month such as to let me not go up to $25 and therefore not to pay me the following 15th.
- Namtaru, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1only online money making scheme ive tried is studiotraffic and 4daily. both have user forums. surfjunky did not. any other scam site would avoid this as well, otherwise admins would spend all their time deleting negative posts.
- bit2bit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Pure Scam Site : http://www.alexa.com/data/details/main?q=&url=surfjunky.com ...
If you'll try to install the "Alexa-Bar" they're promoting, it will try to install a very nice Dropper called DR/AlexaBar.A : http://www.avira.com/en/threats/section/vdfhistory/vdf_no/6.34.00.130/6.34.00.130.html ...
... mhm, http://surfjunky.com/gethelp.php?q=12 :
"Q. - Does Surf Junky install any adware or spyware on my system?
A. - Surf Junky is a clean site and will never install any type of spyware or adware on your system. All of our advertisers and sponsoring sites are also checked for integrity to be part of our online community."

This will help explain why this site is a scam - smash, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0lol fob9546! :D
- markyello, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0that sux
- raj3, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0vlad, good find dude, i knew there was something fishy about it when i saw that the makers of these "surf junky hacks" linked to surf junky through a referal
- dusingaz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0you guys need to read the TC, you have almost NO chance of getting paid. It says that you must make the minimum $20, then your account is looked at for the following month after you hit $20, IF you pass that you get paid on the following months 15th. So it takes at least 2 months to get paid, more like 2.5 months.
- Erit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0no offense, but who really believes in these sites anymore... if it's too good to be true, it probably is.
- linuxbox, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I think this is a bunch of people who were trying to cheat and got caught. I am at $26.31 and my account has not been deleted. I say wait until the 15th and see if anyone gets money.
- enkamil, on 02/24/2009, -0/+0WE'LL SEE
- alexlook, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i warned them did not believe me
- ORBIT, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Silly people looking for a quick buck.
- theRIAA, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i just got my 1st peice of junk mail today
- NyteStarNyne, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I feel sorry for the people who got caught up in this. Isn't there a way to sue?
- haYnguy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0well, the surfjunky people say it is because they are working on bettering the servers. I believe it. I have been having trouble running the thing. now its working fine. Also, it depends on how you go about earning. You CANNOT use firefox or they'll ban you. You cannot use any refresher, or run two surfjunky browsers at the same time. They will ban you for that. For those who lost their money, it could be because of those reasons...
- IraqManiac, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0***** I was at 17.00 and that was hard-earned money... well, annoyingly earned money
- europa79, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0$41.51 down the drain.
- M1K3Y, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Surf Junky is a scam i was on $16.00 then they ban you for no reason and after reading a bunch of sites it is for sure a scam BOYCOT them!!

This site pays using check and Alertpay or you can give your earnings to charity! - jb3200, on 05/19/2008, -0/+0I just started Surfjunky so i am not for sure if it is a scam or not. I added the link on my website although everything else on my website does pay for sure. I have been paid by every site on there so now I guess I will see what happens with surf junky
http://www.freewebs.com/jb3200 - kulinfx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0it really is man, i got cheated for $28.99 and they said my account is suspended now
- fob9546, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I found something in their Terms of service that would deter any litigation.
"Surf Junky reserves the right to cancel any members accounts, at any given time, for any reason at all. Any terminated account will result in the loss of all earnings." - smurfzapper, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0welll for those of you who have been scammed by surfjunky there is another option that will actually pay....
Ok this is how it works…
You sign up, and you get 10 bucks free.
Everyday, you run Surf4spots, which has a 20 second timer that randomly opens new websites. You can just let it run in the background and do anything you want.
When you start, you are at the $10 account level, and every day you surf 200 sites (by having Surf4Spots open), you earn 1% of your account level (If your a paying/upgraded member, you only have to surf 100 sites). So to start off with, you are earning 10 cents per day (1% of $10 = $0.1). You can upgrade your account by compounding your earnings. So I can take my 10 cents a day and when I get $10, I can put that back into my account so my account level will be $20. Then I start earning 1% of $20 every day and so on. Or if you don’t want to wait, you can deposit money to upgrade your account.
